Grace Under Fire!

Grace Under Fire: The Quiet Strength Behind Skillful Facilitation

In high‑heat meetings and hard conversations, facilitators are often “standing in the fire” — holding space for strong emotions, conflict, and complexity while still guiding the group forward with clarity and courage.

This experiential session, inspired by Larry Dressler’s Standing in the Fire: Leading High‑Heat Meetings with Clarity, Calm, and Courage, helps you build the inner presence needed to stay grounded and resourceful when things get intense.

You will:

Explore what “grace under fire” means in your facilitation practice.

Identify ways to stay steady and centred in difficult conversations.

Take away practical ideas you can apply in your next high‑heat meeting.
